Just carrying over from last night Deri's last moments on the nest - just in case they are the last we see of the dear girl. I don't know if she is the bird flying onto the perch, or if it's Monty.
To my amazement, I found that I'd been recording the nest since last evening - 10h45m !!! And I could play it !!!
Here are the first visitors this morning: corvids that don't look like crows to me:
Then PATILY said :-)

Good morning, all. Only one bird in sight:

Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
FISH, 8:18! Deri flies from the T-post to the nest, shouting - she is joined by Monty, who has brought her a fish:
She takes it and he flies off:
Deri is still on the nest shouting at Monty, who is hanging his wings to dry on the T-post.
She has finally stopped shouting and has started to eat.
After the trouble-free editing of the 10+ hour video, I cannot for the life of me get thru the much shorter fish delivery sequence - it's pretty colours, maybe that's why it's not navigable. Still trying.
It sounds as though Deri is now on the cam post. She's still shouting intermittently.
